I posted the tabs too, for some reason I'm a psycho for this thing...

From begging man to your father’s friend, to that cop that pulled me over on beverly grand, I’ve had a famous man on his fire escape, and countless dinner dates

But a warm bed, that’s something, but that alone just ain’t enough, so I roll on roll on

But it’s just no fun, when your heart belongs to a sunofagun

A shooting raffle a firing range, I’m pistolwhipped I’ll never be the same

But I love him, yes I do, and he’s gonna do what he’s gonna do, he’ll roll on, roll on

Then I knocked you over, you called my bluff, you pushed me down, fair enough, in high schools hospitals and holidays, I saw your face in every goddamn state, you overdosed it
was almost too late you said it aged you when you saw my face

And a warm bed, while that was something, and history’s host keeps on thumping, and it rolls on

And it’s just no fun when you hate the person you’ve become

Bitter lonely and isolated, before I know it I’ll be an old maid

But I love love, yes I do, even when it’s weight cripples you, and it rolls on, rolls on

And I never loved that other man, he’s a fairy tale that I can’t have, and now I know how a fairy tale feels, you wanna marry me, you say I’m the real deal
And I just don’t know how I got stung, guess there’s muscle memory for love, and if you try hard enough, you might once again call my bluff, or you can roll on

But it’s just no fun, when your happiness is on the run

Jumping hurdles life’s in 10k, it’s a marathon love’s delay
But a warm bed is as good as it gets, let’s settle down and have a couple of kids, and do like your parents did, or we can roll on, roll on, roll on

I’ve had a famous man on his fire escape
and countless dinner dates

and a warm bed, well that’s something
but that alone just ain’t enough
so I roll on, roll on

but it’s just no fun
when your heart belongs to a son-of-a gun
a shooting rifle, a firing range
I’m pistol whipped, I’ll never be the same

but I love him, yes I do
and he’s gonna do what he’s gonna do
he’ll roll on, roll on

when I knocked you down, you called my bluff
you pushed me over, fair enough
in high schools, hospitals, on holidays
I've seen your face in every goddamn state
my overdose, it was almost too late
you said it aged you when you saw my face

and a warm bed, well that was something
and history’s a horse, it keeps on thumping
and it rolls on, rolls on

and it’s just no fun
when you hate the person you’ve become
bitter, lonely, and isolated, before I know it I’ll be an old maid

but I love love, yes I do
even when its weight cripples you
it rolls on, rolls on

I never loved that other man
he’s a fairy tale that I can’t have
and now I know how a fairy tale feels
you wanna marry me, you say that I’m the real deal

and I just don’t know how I got stuck

and if you try hard enough
you might once again call my bluff
or you can roll on, roll on

but it’s just no fun, when your happiness is on the run
jumping hurdles in life’s in 10k,
it’s a marathon and love’s too late

but a warm bed is as good as it gets
let’s settle down and have a couple of kids
and do like your parents did,
or we can roll on, roll on, roll on

That's what I hear, but I'm not a 100 percent sure they're right. Some of the lyrics are hard to hear.

I love this song so much.

And anyone who doesn't have Dntel's "Dumb Luck" is a fool.
